BB-1 or MB-1, or XO-1 or CO-1? Never heard of a BB and I can't find it in any of the old archived catalogs.

What year?

Look here for info on Bridgestones: http://www.sheldonbrown.com/bridgestone/

i don't know what year it is yet (the guy hasn't gotten back to me). It is listed on criagslist (San Luis Obispo, CA: March 2) under bikes.

It is a 1992. City commuter bike. Looks like it was only made for one year. Most bridgestones were really competitively priced at the time and since this is their cheapest model from 1992 I would say $125 is too much, but those are cool bikes. I ride an older bridgestone road bike (RB) that's been converted to fixed gear and I love it.
